Magpie Tales 155...Embrace


artwork by Joseph Lorusso


Passion consumes
mindless of time and place
as kisses burn
in hot surrender
 
Tight arms enfold
hearts in thrall
bodies catch fire
in molten rapture
 
If you're lucky 




The prompt for Magpie Tales this week.  Apropos for Valentine's Day, of course.  Sigh...there really isn't anything quite so amazing as being in a torrid embrace, is there?

      Many think Valentine's Day is just crass commercialism; I prefer to think of it as a day to remember how important love is in our hard, often cruel world.

      (BTW: Glad you're still out there, even if you're not writing at the moment. Miss your little "bests"...) ;D

    I'm reminded of the old song ... 'embrace me, my sweet embraceable you'

      That's some embrace in the painting, for sure, though it looks like it could melt sweet... ;D

      Luck, chance, serendipity, kismet. Love is inexplicable, but oh so wonderful...
